yeah i cant work out how to make it sound more cheeky but also keep the slight seriousness to it. I think I will have to sleep on it lol.

And definitely send it to my friend. He's very cheeky so i'm sure he can help.

ok so out of 163 pictures on my facebook i have found two that are just barely decent

*cringe*

no first one is a definite no no
 
I prefer the first one, second one is pretty much the same as your profile pic, just more tongue :p

plus the second one has armpit in it
 
really?

hmm should i add it? although will have to chop my dad out of it first :p

all the other pics of me are where i'm tipsy or it's at a bad angle so they are not suitable lol
 
the few girls I've met from these sorts of sites ages ago, the pics they had up were so misleading, one had taken them from one angle only, so it was hard to judge, and all of them sitting down in so hard to judge proportion (height etc)
and the other one always had something infront of her face, hair, drink, a straw with a penis on the end :confused: granted, when I met them, it wasn't a bad surprise to see what they looked like, but made it harder to figure out who I was meeting in person, couldn't recognise them

one of them, when arranging our meeting, I asked how I'd recognise her, she replied "I'll be wearing my new hat"......as compared to her old hat?.... pretty, but oh so simple :p
 
@secretspy:

My ideal match would be a man who knows what he's wants

Sorry, just a niggle, but it stands out because it's in the first sentence.

I'm definitely a marriage and kids kind of girl. Ideally it would be great for that to happen before I'm 30 but I know you can't plan these things!

I'd remove all of that. It's kind of a given anyway, and it might scare some guys away.

The rest is ok, but the one thing I would possibly suggest (although this is up to you) is to have less information. Based on my golden rule (3 profile-specific questions and max 2 generic ones) of a first message, I find it very hard to do this when there's loads of information because everything's been asked.

For example:

I work as a Finance Assistant for a merchandising company and I love it.

You've annihilated three possible questions there, namely - what do you do, who do you work for and do you enjoy it? If you simply said "I work for a merchandising company" you can then be asked what you do for said company.

Does that make sense? Another example:

I haven't been to many places abroad so would love to see more of the world one day. I've always wanted to go to Australia and also to New York around Christmas time.

...replace that with...

I haven't been to many places abroad so would love to see more of the world one day. Does anybody have any suggestions? :)

Bad example, but hopefully you get it. That way retards have an easy time messaging you and it makes it a bit easier for the non-retards anyway.

argh i didn't notice that spelling mistake - Doh!thanks for pointing it out!

Some good points you've raised. Initially i didnt mention my job, only added it later on when someone suggested i should lol

as for the marriage and kids thing, i added that because i keep meeting guys who say they want it but actually dont, or dont want it or want it but not till they're really old.

i told my boss i'd added that bit and he said it was a good idea but if everyone else thinks it's not i will remove it.

Will have to try and remember to update it when i get home! thanks for the tips.

Monkee - i dont know if i have any recent ones where im just smiling genuinely. the only one i have is from years ago.
 
Gotta agree with Russinating as it leaves some questions to actually ask when "getting to know one another" as otherwise the small talk is even more laborious!

Whacked out about another 5 messages last night on my phone when I had a few mins, wonder if I just get a "Read and Deleted" :\ lol swines!!
 
Personally I wouldn't like to go into a relationship knowing the other person wanted kids, it takes time for decisions like that to be made with the person.

You might just end up scaring men off as they're afraid to commit before they know you...

If you see where I'm coming from.
 
it's a double edged sword really, on the one hand you'll get rid of a lot of time wasters, but on the other hand, you might find some wierdo who just wants to knock you up lol

if I'm going to suggest anything, I'd suggest changing it to something along the lines of:

"I'd like to be married and have kids eventually, but I'm in no rush"

or something similar....unless you're actually in a rush and are going to pop your next potential's condoms and trap him :p


but that might be what you want >.>
